Introduced by Rep. Kimberly Meltzer (R) on October 23, 2007, to require a government pension system to take away the pension benefits of a former employee convicted of a felony arising out of his or her government employment, and also take away his or her post-retirement health benefits (but not those for which any dependent is eligible). Under current law a government pension system may but is not required to take away a corrupt employee’s pension, and does not have authority to take away the health benefits.
- Referred to the House Government Operations Committee on October 23, 2007.

Why not take away any and all benefits from any and all government employees current as well as retired? But, then I would guess that then nobody in government would ever get any retirement. I can see where this will never get passed.
